Found another way to use the Santa Maria

[LordRiffenstein]

Realized that the big CI griddle I have would fit nicely on the SM grill. Checked it and it was perfect so decided to do some fajitas. Build a little fire and the griddle was hot in no time. The SM allowed me to raise the griddle so it didn't get to hot, worked perfectly.

Started with onions, then some red bel peppers. When they were done, it was time to do the chicken. Chopped up some thighs and seasoned them in the morning with some spicy concoction. Grilled the chicken, added onion and pepper again and it was al done in no time. The misses made a chunky guacamole. It was good eating and will be doing this again.

A great way to use the Santa Maria! Would love to have one...and some of your eats!

That’s a great idea. I’ve got a cast iron griddle and a Santa Maria being built, gonna try that out

I did it once and found wood fired griddle cooking to be a lot more work with little benefit compared to putting the griddle over my gas grill.

I did burgers on the griddle inside the Primo and got some smokiness that way, but I found the open Santa maria to contribute little additional.

Maybe you had a different experience

Brilliant! That's my kinda cookin right there.

That’s fantastic!

I use my cast iron often on the SM, very fun to griddle or hang a pot beans!

I don´t own a gas grill so I figured I could try this and it worked a LOT better than I was expecting. But probably not as fast as gas.

Excellent use of the Santa Maria! Looks great!
